For the last ten years a lot of work has been devoted to propositionalization techniques in relational learning. These techniques change the representation of relational problems t...
We define logical relations between the denotational semantics of a simply typed functional language with recursion and the operational behaviour of low-level programs in a varian...
This paper focuses on the problem of scheduling outages to computer systems in complex distributed environments. The interconnected nature of these systems makes scheduling global ...
Superfluous variables are often produced as the byproducts of program transformations, compilation, and poorly written code. These variables are irrelevant to the computational o...
